OBLIQUE BREAKWATERS FOR MULTI-PURPOSE BEACH RECREATION AND SHORE PROTECTION

Shore protection by oblique seabed bars

Shore protection by small seabed bars was once considered possible because seafloor undulations strongly reflect surface waves of twice the wavelength by the so-called Bragg resonance mechanism. The idea, however, proved “unreliable” when Yu & Mei (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 404, 2000, pp. 251-268) showed that a patch of longshore seabed bars adjacent to a reflective shore could result in larger wave...

Valuing Beach Recreation Lost in Environmental Accidents

This paper reviews methods that can be used to estimate the loss in use value associated with saltwater beach recreation in the case of an environmental accident, such as an oil spill. Particular attention is focused on methods for verifying beach attendance data and on transferring benefit estimates from other locales. The paper first reviews methods for estimating what reported attendance mig...

The Feasibility and Effectiveness of using Bragg Breakwaters in the Shore- line Wave Climate for East Taiwan Ocean Energy

The purpose of this paper is to test the feasibility and affectivity of Bragg breakwaters on increasing wave energy by using wave conditions. The Bragg reflection phenomena will depend on the wavelength of surface waves and the spacing of the submerged breakwater. The spacing of the submerged breakwater is the most important parameter for designing a series of submerged breakwaters. In this pap...
